 [:o]About 2 minutes ago, while downloading a couple of programs onto my Palm m130, I got a Falal Alert, something about non-word-aligned handle and I think I have to reset the silly thing...oh boy, I hope everything I hot synced will be put back otherwise this palm will be going through the door...the hard way![:@]
 
 Wish me luck

 fivegonefishingOK, I m a happy camper now...just had to soft reset the silly thing.  Nothing was lost but it still was kind of scary there for a while.  [:)]

 fivegonefishingThe great thing about a Palm Pilot is everything is backed up on your computer.
 When I replaced mine, I was able to hot sync the new one, and everything got transfered, just like the old one.

 fivegonefishingOne of the tasks I ve decided to alot to my plam is to hold my packing list and my camping journal, once I find the best application to create it on that is.
 
 I guess I m both a camping freak and computer geek![;)]

 fivegonefishingFive,
 
 I feel your pain.  My computer had to have a quick restore done on it and I lost all of my files.  The hardest to lose was the family pictures.  At least now the computer is getting back to normal.  I almost have all the programs loaded back on.

 fivegonefishingI killed mine, somehow a battery came out?  I don t think my camping program was hotsync-able.  I still have to hotsync but I m potentially bummed but glad to hear yours turned out ok!

 fivegonefishingSo, does this happen often on those things?  I just got that message...and it s been quite a while since I hot-synced, so I m a bit worried about what I ve lost.  Oh well, if I have to reload, I can and it will be a lesson learned the hard way.
